Start here

Start where you actually are.

Most people pick the wrong course because they compare price, not fit. Find your situation below.

I run a salon or do skin & hair

You want to advise clients on food that affects skin, hair and nails — without a full qualification.

→ Skin Nutrition, 10 days

I'm starting from zero

No science degree, no biochemistry. You want a real qualification and your first paying clients.

→ Certificate, 6 months

I'm already qualified

You have a nutrition qualification but not the casework, documentation or confidence to charge for it.

→ Diploma, 12 months

I want a government-recognised role

You want an NSQF-aligned job title that employers and wellness brands recognise.

→ Health & Wellness Coach

The pathways

Four nutrition programmes, one ladder.

Each one stands alone. The Certificate also credit-transfers into the Diploma, so nothing you pay for is wasted if you go further.

Why Orane

Free videos teach you facts. This teaches you practice.

Six things a YouTube playlist can't give you.

01

Indian food, Indian bodies

Thalis, roti-sabzi portions, festival eating, Indian BMI and waist cutoffs. Not calorie charts built for another country's plate.

02

Live classes, not a video dump

Fixed weekly sessions with a teacher who answers you. Miss one and the recording is in your dashboard the same day.

03

Real client casework

You practise on cases, not quizzes. The Diploma ends in a supervised case portfolio you can show a client or an employer.

04

A ladder, not a dead end

The Certificate credit-transfers into the Diploma. Start small, decide later, don't pay twice for the same foundations.

05

An institution behind the paper

Orane International has trained over 100,000 students since 2004 across 120+ academies in 22 states. ICAHP and B&WSSC affiliated, NSQF aligned.

06

Business, not just biology

Pricing, client acquisition, tele-nutrition and content are taught modules — because knowing nutrition and earning from it are two different skills.

How it works

From first message to certificate, in four steps.

01

Message a counsellor

A short WhatsApp chat to work out which of the four fits you, what it costs, and when the next batch starts.

02

Join a live batch

Classes run at fixed timings on the Orane App — mobile or web. Recordings stay available throughout.

03

Practise on real cases

Assignments after every module, reviewed by faculty. You build plans for actual scenarios, not hypotheticals.

04

Finish with proof

A capstone project or a supervised case portfolio, plus your Orane International credential.

Who teaches

Learn from practising nutrition faculty.

Your live weekly classes and case practice are led by experienced nutrition educators.

PS

Pooja Semwal

Lead Nutrition Faculty

Leads the foundations and coaching modules, guiding beginners from the balanced plate to real client practice.

SM

Sapna Mallick

Questions

Before you ask a counsellor.

Do I need a science background?
No — not for the Skin Nutrition programme, the Certificate of Nutrition, or the Health & Wellness Coach course. All three are built for complete beginners. The Diploma assumes you already have a nutrition qualification, though its first phase is a foundations refresher.
Is this a Registered Dietitian (RD) qualification?
No. These are professional qualifications issued by Orane International. The RD title is a separate regulated credential and no online course in India confers it. What these programmes give you is the skill and the documented casework to advise clients as a nutritionist.
What is the certificate actually worth?
You receive an Orane International credential. Orane is ICAHP and B&WSSC affiliated, with courses aligned to the NSQF. The Health & Wellness Coach course is HSSC-accredited at NSQF Level 5.
What if I miss a live class?
The recording lands in your dashboard on the Orane App the same day, and stays available for the length of your course. Live attendance is better for the case discussions, but it isn't a hard gate.
Can I start with the Certificate and upgrade later?
Yes — that's the design. The 6-month Certificate credit-transfers into the Diploma in Nutrition & Dietetics, so you don't repeat or re-pay for the foundations. Ask your counsellor how the transfer is credited against the Diploma fee.
Is EMI available?
EMI options are available on the longer programmes. Terms depend on the financing partner and your documents — your counsellor will walk you through what applies to you on the call.
Will I get clients after this?
Nobody can promise you clients. What the course does is remove the two things that usually stop people: not knowing how to build a plan for an Indian household, and not knowing how to price, pitch and retain a client. Both are taught modules, and the final projects give you something concrete to show.
How much time per week does it take?
Plan for the live session plus a few hours of practice and assignment work each week. The Diploma's internship phase is heavier — that's the point of it. Your counsellor can give you the current batch schedule so you can check it against your week.
